Webinar Recap and Recording: Adaptive Project Leadership

Adaptive Project Leadership: Helping You and Your Teams Succeed in Disruptive Times

What makes an adaptive leader and why is adaptive project leadership more important now than ever? Our recent #StratExLive webinar addressed these questions in a conversation between Tim Wasserman, Chief Learning Officer of Strategy Execution, and Alaina Burden, Program Director of the Adaptive Strategic Execution Program. To start, Wasserman and Burden explored the variables that result in project work being more volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) and the heightened need for an adaptive mindset as projects become more critical to overall organizational success.

After determining why and how project work is changing, Wasserman goes on to explain that projects are categorized into four operating contexts: simple, complicated, complex, and chaotic. Adaptive leadership starts with identifying your operating context then deciding the best approach to take to successfully lead and manage work for the situation. Leaders and organizations that are willing to approach projects with an altered mindset for the situation – an adaptive mindset – are better equipped to handle uncertainty and unfamiliarity.
